🏰The 2017 Burlotto Barolo Cannubi is a 【standout sensation from a challenging vintage】, showcasing the perfect balance of power and grace from the prestigious Cannubi vineyard. Despite spring frost and summer heat, Burlotto demonstrated a "magic touch" in 2017, producing only 4,000 bottles of this exceptional wine. This classic expression of Nebbiolo offers layers of dark fruit, delicate floral aromas, and earthy nuances. The nose is an inviting mix of blackberries, cherries, plums, rose, violet, tobacco, earth, wild cassis, blueberry, lilac, pressed violets, orange peel, and crushed limestone. On the palate, it's full-bodied and structured, with fine tannins, bright acidity, and an elegant mouthfeel. Flavors include 【dark fruit, earth, subtle spice, red berries, tobacco, crushed herbs, sweet earth, cranberry cocktail, cinnamon, and dusty earth】, leading to a long and persistent finish. 🍴 This Barolo is perfect for pairing with roasted meats, game, or truffle dishes. It also beautifully complements beef short ribs, lamb ragu, aged Pecorino, and wild mushroom pasta. 🥂 While already drinking beautifully, the 2017 vintage has the structure to age gracefully, evolving further in the cellar for those with patience. Recommended to drink from 2025 onward, or cellar for 15+ years, with a drinking window extending to 2042. It's an excellent choice for collectors.
